The hottest K-Pop group, BTS surely know how to take care of their fans and they do it like no other. The septet boy band from South Korea is making sure that their fans have all the fun and entertainment that they were expecting from their Seoul concert.

And now, as the most-awaited virtual event drops online, fans are losing their minds and going crazy with excitement to see their favorite music group back with a bang, literally.

One fan goes all emotional and says, "I think I died a little inside. Or a fire started in me. I feel alive but oh so dead. I don’t really know @BTS_twt #BTS#BANGBANGCON #BangBangConWithARMY #BTS_concert_at_home.”

“I’m so scared for this dance break to happen I literally cannot keep myself together #BANGBANGCON,” another says. Another fan cannot hold his excitement as he prepares to witness what’s coming in the next segment and says, “Holy s**t.... seeing those outfits reminds me of what is coming... o.m.g... quick toilet break and get back into bed because damn! I need to be laying down when Baepsae starts... lord have mercy on my soul. @BTS_twt  #BTS #BTSARMY #BangBangCon #BANGBANGCON_D1 #BangBangConWithARMY."

Fans are in absolute awe of their favorite band as they see them performing, although virtually.

“Once again i FALL IN LOVE with them @BTS_twt #BANGBANGGCON #BANGBANGCON_D1 #BTS #JIMIN #V #JUNGKOOK #JIN #RM #SUGA #JHOPE”, says a fan

To make the experience more realistic, some fans are taking this to the next level and keeping the volumes on their devices at the maximum and screaming back at their favorite singers, just like you would at a concert. One fan jokes, “Im pretty sure that by now my neighbours are about to call the cops on my screaming ass#BANGBANGCON # #BANGBANGCON_D1 #BTS_concert_at_home #BangBangConWithARMY #BTS @BTS_twt.”

Owing to the coronavirus outbreak, BTS had to postpone and even cancel multiple concerts to be held in Seoul, which were scheduled for April. The concerts would have marked the beginning of their Map of the Soul tour. But since countries are in lockdown, quarantining themselves in their respective homes, there is no question of a public event of that size and volume. Ergo, they came up with the virtual event – Bang Bang Con. The unique and completely free event features footage of their concerts over the years.

The 24-hour pop extravaganza is streaming from 11 pm ET on April 17 through April 18, exclusively on BTS’s YouTube channel BANGTANTV.
